Ever Seen This On Your Hookah?


Recommended Posts

Okay so I am getting my Basha out the other day for the big photo shoot. I haven't smoked out of it for a month or so and cleaned it real well like I always do and it's been in my closet. Pull it out and BAM! No idea what this is. Never happened to me before on any of my hookahs EVER!

Cleaned it off, and gave it a good thorough cleaning. Still have no idea what it was.

looks like rust under the top level of metal...as though the hookah isnt one solid layer, but several layers...I've seen that happen with other metals in my experience as a commercial painter...although I could be mistaken because you were able to just wipe it off

...is it possible for a layer of rust to transport not damaging something?

Stuie, that's the candy treat that comes with every hookah! Thought you would've known this by now...

Just looks like a bit of corrosion from the brass. No biggie deal, get some brass cleaner if it bothers you. The white stuff looks like it could be corrosion too, or maybe just accumulated lime scale from repeated washings and letting it air dry instead of drying off the outside with a towel.

Calcium buildup is usually white, lettauce would turn brown, best guess is animal feces, gross but true, or dead bug.
